I suspect the administration thought that if they had not given tax cuts to the wealthy then the whole tax bill would fail and everyone's taxes would go up. Then all we would hear durng the next election cycle is that President Obama is responsible for raising the middle classes' taxes.
I don't think there are enough votes to get it passed with the $250K limit and next year with the new Republicans coming in it would be impossible.
